Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1470 "Leather Products"

  All herders know that if there are too many flogging marks on the skin of an animal, the skin will not be sold at a high price.

  Be careful when skinning large cats, such as lions and leopards, otherwise the specimens made will not be lifelike enough to sell to local museums.

  But there are many traces of flogging on the backs of slaves, and the "master" can dispose of them at will.

Introduced by Talleyrand, the general Rishbones who went to Guadeloupe for him also contracted yellow fever and was dying of illness. He wrote back and wanted to return to his country. Before he fell ill, he was in Guadeloupe. There was a fierce resistance in the anti-slave army, and they blew themselves up with gunpowder under the threat of the French army.

  Guadeloupe is also in the Caribbean. Even if Napoleon wants to withdraw his troops, he will not withdraw to the island of Barbados loaned to him by Portugal.

  There is no slavery in Britain, but colonies still exist, especially on those islands, but most British people do not know this. On the contrary, slavery still exists in the United States because it was originally a British colony.

  It is impossible to restore slavery in areas where slavery has been abolished. They have done everything like self-destruction. What else would they dare not do?

  But Bonaparte must also take into account the interests of the slave owners and plantation owners. The Poles have clearly refused to carry out the order. If they continue to force them, they may rebel. After all, most people have a conscience.

She was annoyed with this matter, but had to compromise. She could only suggest that Bonaparte should not restore slavery to places where slavery has been abolished, and that places where slavery has not been abolished should be considered long-term, and she would not recommend Bonaparte. Accept the British proposal and borrow from Bahrain Brothers.

  She still remembers the Suez Canal and the Pasha who wanted to build Egypt better. Egypt had so many workers who died, and finally had to rely on force to get back the ownership of the canal. He just thought of the grand blueprint, but forgot to send labor to repair roads, no one would go to farm, and he would not be able to develop the agriculture of his dreams. France, which had just ended the turmoil, was not enough to be unscrupulous and public. The point of engineering.

  Most civilians are contented if they have a job. Compare each other's income with each other. Originally, the steel industry could create a lot of job opportunities, but now the French steel industry is not scaled up, and it is far inferior to the industrial revolution in Britain.

  It can be seen how much time was wasted by the nobles who did not ask about world affairs by holding **** all day long in Versailles.

   was very annoying, but she still had to face it. Georgiana finally went to St. Luke’s Palace where Josephine lived.

  The etiquette here is almost the same as that of Versailles. Many men wear stockings. Fortunately, they don't wear wigs or powder, and they wear etiquette swords on their waists. They couldn't help but keep their eyes on her when they saw Georgiana appear.

  She smiled at those people, and then went to her Indian-style office. This time she did not bring any maids, not even Madame Montesquieu, so she had to make tea by herself.

  Not long after waiting, her first guest showed up. After the knock on the door, Mrs. Seju from the Women’s Association opened the double doors and walked in. She frowned like Mrs. Montesquieu.

   "Good morning." Georgiana was very "English" to greet her.

  Mrs. Seju held up her skirt and curtseyed to Georgiana.

  "Madam." Madam Seju said in very soft French, "Please help those poor women."

   "I thought you and Mrs. Bonaparte were in charge of this matter."

“It’s not enough to give them bread.” Mrs. Seju said sadly. “Many of them are temporary workers. Even a job of 8 su a day is not always available. They have to bear the rent every month, and there are also children who have to pay. Yes, I know a lady who already owes a rent of 75 francs, and she will be kicked out if she doesn't pay the rent."

  Georgiana felt that it was necessary to build a shelter for women and children.

"There is an empty house at No. 25 Cardinal Road in Ramwa. You go to the charity to withdraw part of the money, and you will arrange the bed and dining room there to give the homeless women a place to stay." Georgiana thought. I want to say "Military members have priority."

   "I heard that Charles Garnier had a proposal to give those widows 600 francs a year."

   "Where did you hear about it?" Georgiana said blankly.

  "My husband is in the parliament. Many people think that sending money to those widows can boost consumption."

   "They may also save money, and the 38 million francs budget is too high." Georgiana said blankly.

  "How about our organization of fundraising?" Mrs. Seju quickly said, "I know that many generals are willing to donate."

  Georgiana was weighing the pros and cons, the double doors opened again, and the first ruling appeared in front of her, with boots on his feet.

   "You should go now." Georgiana said to Mrs. Segu.

  Mrs. Seju curtseyed towards Georgiana, and then left the office in silence.

  She closed the door when she left. She was really thoughtful and thoughtful.

   "What did you talk about just now?" he said in a rough voice.

   "Talk about women's shelters, and organize fundraising." Georgiana automatically thought that she walked to the sofa he was sitting on. "I also think that sending money to women can promote liquidity and let other industries start."

  He took her hand, let her sit on his lap, and then he put his nose to her chest, sucking the smell from her, as if he was going to "dinner".

  She indulged him to relax for a while, then straightened his big head with both hands, forcing his eyes to stare at herself.

  "Don't take the money the British gave you, no matter how badly you need it now." She seriously said, "How are you talking to the Jews?"

   "No discussion yet." He said docilely, "How do you see those two houses?"

   "I intend to use the Scottish Academy as a women's shelter, which I just decided." She pinched his Greek nose. "I haven't thought about what to do in the apartment of the Duke of Burgundy?"

  "Are you not planning to build a school?"

   "I think the school should be built in a place away from the crowds, just like the one I used to."

  "I think so too." He smiled and said, "Saint-Germain, I plan to build a cavalry school, Fontainebleau, I plan to build a noncommissioned school."

   "I don't want to be the principal of Condorcet Middle School." She seriously said, "Being the dean is tired enough."

  His hand drew across her back, "I'm tired too, how about let's rest for a while?"

  "Aren't you taking a break at lunch time?"

  "When I first arrived in Paris, I used to study astronomy for a while. How about going to the planetarium to see the stars tonight?"

  She thought about it, "Didn’t you say you don’t use a telescope to see the stars?"

   "I really haven't used it." He touched her thigh. "I only saw astrology chart."

   "In this way we will return to Paris." She said softly.

   "You can see the stars everywhere, how about the house in the Grand Trianon? I put a warship in it."

  "Who do you think I am?" She said harshly.

  "Your appearance fills my heart." His eyes lit up, and he said nervously, "Separate from you and make me like a thirsty person in the desert. Seeing you is like seeing an oasis."

   "Are you agreeing to withdraw troops?"

  He became more sober and did not answer.

   "Find an excuse to shirk?" she asked again.

   "Maybe the water in this oasis is poisoned." He said dullly and let her go.

"No one wants to be a slave, Leon, you can say that you have no intention of restoring slavery. It is a lie that Dusan Louvidure told for his own ambitions." Giorgioanna said calmly, "To Santo Domingo And Guadeloupe’s slave citizenship, treating them as French overseas provinces."

   "Why don't you tell me when I want to hear advice?" He said irritably.

"I think this is what makes me annoying. I don't use sweet words to make people happy. Instead, I will remind others to be restrained when they are happy." She squeezed his ear softly. "But I still hope you can win, I I want to see the different world you create."

  He looked so moved and cried.

"I know that men sometimes need to force it. For example, to find out what Diodora did when Dinny wanted to escape, but this time I don’t think I can do that. The surrendered officers are using the expeditionary force to eradicate dissidents for Dusan. You Let me take care of those widows. I'm doing it. Have you protected your soldiers?"

   "What do you think should be done?" He calmly said.

"In addition to Guadeloupe, France also has a colony on Martinique. According to the "Amiens Treaty", it was returned to France by the British. The slavery on this island is still preserved. There has been no slave rebellion, as long as it can be blocked. After staying with the news, the expeditionary army can go there to rest, and the slavery there can be temporarily retained." Georgiana said, "but you have to let the slave owners understand that this is the general trend, just like the restoration of the Bourbon dynasty is impossible. , Just now I walked all the way, I thought I was in Versailles, you can't let Marie Antoinette's maid do whatever he wants! For the sake of God, silk stockings are for women."

  "What they wear is their freedom." Bonaparte asked her to stand up, and then stood up by herself, "I only wear boots when I am riding a horse."

  Georgiana looked at the boots on his feet.

   "Want to kiss it?" he asked sarcastically.

  She pursed her mouth, but didn't hit him.

  The man’s face is also leather, and it’s very thin, so it can’t stand a beating.

   So he stomped his feet fiercely, as if his toes were on the soles of the shoes.

  He didn't continue to tease with her, instead he smiled sarcastically and turned away.

   "Asshole." She whispered.

   "Remember to wear silk stockings." Before opening the door and leaving, he exclaimed, "I don't like seeing women wearing boots."

  She stared at the door that opened and closed, and threw it away with the things on the table. Of course, no one hit it. It was a waste of effort.
